I've bought glasses in Bangkok 3 times out of necessity. I never felt that I got a deal.
Here are two of the big chains in BKK they are on most corners:
Beautiful Optical

Top Charoen
http://www.topcharoen.co.th/
http://www.pattayacity.com/topcharoen/
If you have an old pair you are replacing please consider dropping them off at the Amari hotel where they will be recycled for poor thais. For further information please

The sites and names Negeshia gave are the larger chains. I broke my frames there and ended up at a Top Charoen shop in the Fortune Mall. The employees english was not great but we managed. I paid like USD 40 for a titanium frame that just happened to fit. I would have paid USD 150 or more in the USA. I would think part of the problem is that they import the lenses if you don't get a deal. There is usually one or 2 glass places in most malls.
Good luck

I wish I could help you, but I haven't been able to find any since I misplaced my glasses.
